I am going to build a 10 story apartment in my neighborhood (zoned to 6 stories)
grad students need to be put in their place! it’s dr professor light phd the third pepsicola endowed chair of economic philosophy to you jimbo
Always kind of amazed at the hubris grad students show when they talk to me, look me in the eye, fail to add the proper honourifics before and after my name, etc. Do they think we are equals? Does the PhD mean nothing to them? We have hierarchy in academia for a reason you know.
Pioneers Pass is ready for take off! Thanks @cityofwinnipeg.bsky.social for the excellent snow clearing job on NorthEast Pioneers Greenway. It made my 13 km of errands today so much easier and more enjoyable. & One less car on the road creating traffic and collisions. #bike #trike #etrike
Biss has run in multiple elections since the retraction story broke and it has yet to grow into an electorally relevant scandal.
So an even narrower constituency?
Also, I really disagree with @alonlevy.bsky.social's contention that Biss is a uniquely vulnerable candidate because of journal retractions & his lead is solely due to the unique weakness of Kat. If he was super-vulnerable, there's no shortage of other Illinois Dems who could throw their hats in.
Service-oriented machines seemed to persist at least a little after the introduction of Secret Ballots.

Great time at the Chalmers Neighbourhood Renewal Community feast yesterday.

Great time today at Keewatinohk Inniniw Minoayawin Inc.'s holiday open house.
Got to say hi to KIM's Chief Strategic Officer Moriah Davis and KIM's CEO Dr. Barry Lavallee.
Made sure to bring canned food for KIM's food drive to support families in need this winter.
*EXTREMELY* temporary bus stop ... they didn't even print out the route number originally and added it with a marker!
I drank an old Diet Pepsi from a fridge. It tasted terrible. Discovered that Diet Pepsi does expire.
Today I discovered that Diet Pepsi expires. It was not a pleasant discovery.
Genuinely, is there a single upside to having a smart fridge? Everyone keeps talking about the downsides which are all the ads and shit but like
Why do people buy these
If I want to know what's in the fridge I can just open it
@aleach.ca Any idea where the $400/tonne industrial carbon price to recoup the emissions abatement lost from removing the Clean Energy Regulations comes from?

Thank you, Dan Leonard (a member of Granite Members for Affordable Housing).
“The MB government is hoping for a generational investment to expand the Port of Churchill, but the City of Winnipeg is unable to even move forward with a funded, city-approved, 111-unit housing project on city land.”
Imagine if an unelected board gave the Foot Locker formal veto powers over what the owners of Polo Park do with their parking lot.

Canada Life has given Granite users access to their parking lot for years, but I can see why they wouldn’t want to formally enter into an agree that would restrict development on their own property.
Doesn't the Granite Curling Club already have an arrangement with Canada Life to use their parking lot at certain times?
The Freep got access to the ruling and published it. Here's a stored copy:

Jelynn Dela Cruz is doing great work as Radisson's MLA & a member of the government helping fix our healthcare, launching the Senior's Advocate, & opening a new school.
Let's ensure the Radisson NDP is funded for next elxn so Jelyn can continue her work.
